HHLA: Positive balance sheet for 2021. Concern about the Odessa container terminal
HHLA achieved sales of EUR 1.46 billion in 2021, 12.7 percent more than in 2020. This was reported by Hamburger Hafen und Logistik (HHLA) at its balance sheet conference on March 24, 2022. HHLA CEO Angela Titzrath described Russia’s attack on Ukraine on February 24 as a “bitter day for all peace-loving people worldwide”. On that day, the port of Odessa, the most important in Ukraine, also had to close. HHLA has operated a container terminal there since 2001.
